Rahul expressed desire to work for party: BJP

BJP president Rajnath Singh said that Rahul Mahajan's request to work for the party was under consideration.

BJP president Rajnath Singh said on Saturday that Rahul Mahajan had expressed desire to work for the party following the death of his father Pramod Mahajan, but the party was yet to take a decision on that.

"He (Rahul) had indeed expressed a desire to work in the party after the death of Pramodji. That was under consideration. So far, we have not taken a decision," he told reporters in response to questions on the sidelines of a function in Bangalore.

Asked if the party viewed the Rahul episode as a conspiracy, Singh said, "What view can the party have? Enquiry is being conducted by the police. I don't want to talk anything about it."
